Description

1979 Ford RS2000 in Headington Hill, QLD. Email me at : armando_sawers@xx...xx y a h o o .com When did you last see one of these? 7/79 genuine Escort RS2000 coupe uniquely presented as X Pack with factory 3 1/2 box flares running the full length of each guard, an expensive option on RS2000s and other Fords in the UK, copied off the Zakspeed racing cars, but never offered on our local models. This car turns heads and stops traffic! Filling those cavernous wheel arches are genuine imported Minilite 15 x 8 alloys shod with 225/50/15s, giving the car considerable presence. Running gear is stock RS2000 2 litre 4 speed manual and HD diff, extractors and 2 inch exhaust. All standard correct RS front end suspension, diff, etc. Keep the standard setup or go nuts with a mountain 2.3 Pinto, Cosworth, Zetec, Duratec or a smorgasboard of factory hot up options. It already has the looks for it! Has been set up to look like English RS with black out taillight panel, repositioned decals, and English style mirror (Aussie ones included too), original yellow was the sickly PinenLime which really did nothing for it, so we zizzed it up with the English RS2000 hue of Signal Yellow, and in the sun it really pops. Bodywork is excellent, I cant find any rust or damage. Interior is really really tidy original Scheel front in the original beta cloth trim, rear seat is unmarked, pretty good door trims (by Escort standards)(fronts have speaker holes), good dash pad, good cluster, great original steering wheel & console, good carpet. Seriously shortened gear stick, but correct short throw shifter, bush and knob included. , I accept cash on pickup or bank transfer, no PayPal on this item.
